Invalid traffic (IVT) is any paid visit that doesn't represent a genuine prospect, from obvious bots to subtle low-quality sessions. Didva detects invalid traffic across your campaigns, explains why each visit was flagged, and gives you campaign-level reporting that platform dashboards don't.

The problem

Invalid traffic spans a wide range: general invalid traffic like known bots and crawlers, and sophisticated invalid traffic like proxies, click farms and human-like automation. Most of it never shows up clearly in your ad platform, so it keeps spending budget and distorting the metrics you optimize against.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is invalid traffic?

Invalid traffic (IVT) is any paid visit that isn't a genuine prospect, including bots, crawlers, proxies, click farms and low-quality or repeated sessions that show no real intent.

How is invalid traffic different from click fraud?

Click fraud is deliberate invalid clicking, while invalid traffic is the broader category that also includes non-malicious non-human and low-quality visits. Didva detects both.

What's the difference between GIVT and SIVT?

General invalid traffic (GIVT) covers known bots and crawlers that are easy to identify; sophisticated invalid traffic (SIVT) hides behind proxies, residential IPs and human-like automation. Didva scores signals for both.

How does Didva report invalid traffic?

Didva breaks down invalid-traffic rates by campaign, keyword, geo, device and source, with click-level detail you can export for review.

Can I act on invalid traffic automatically?

Yes. High-risk sources can be excluded and blocked automatically, with borderline traffic held for review to avoid false positives.
